TW&T100K is the game of all time. It's cool to play this and see the references and building blocks that would eventually be come to create the labyrinth of coven games like the facets, you aka the playable character being an all-powerful familiar, the witches, and story structure. I've been constantly warned about how the ending of this game was utterly flopped but when get to the actual ending of the game it's fine and it actually serves as a narrative to her character in the end which is pretty cool. story is good and metallia is great but some moments has really bad jokes thrown in there in addition to the initial ending players get being bad, but that's kind of the intention to let players know "hey dont you wanna get the real ending of the game".
BUT what's the major problem isn't the story, it's the gameplay. holy shit the gameplay fucking sucks. no sense of stage design, enemy design, or boss design. normally i wouldn't be against asset reuse because companies gotta save up on money and resources somehow but jesus christ it's to a fault here. later on they just reuse bosses as regular enemies that don't flinch to your attacks at all, and they use grunts as bosses too sometimes which makes up for some lame as hell fights. there are 0 good bosses in this game that gave me a sense of fulfillment. bosses are either god awful or just pathetically easy there's no middle line here. do yourself a favor and play the game on casual mode for the best experience because this game is total slop, but at least it's playable; i gave in to casual mode when i was in the postgame for the real ending and i have no shame for it. oh yeah, can't forget the awful loading times too.
would i recommend this? slight yes, but a majority is no. if you do waste your precious income on this game or pirate it, then do keep it in mind that you're in kusoge territory. i'd only recommend this if you played the two labyrinth of coven games, refrain and galleria, and you want to follow it up with the precursor of it all.
but at least metallia is goated to me so in some sense it was worth it. me when a bad bitch tells me to do something
